Abstract
Objective: Glycogen storage disorders (GSD), inherent disorders of carbohydrate metabolism, feature hypoglycemia as a hallmark. Normoglycemia and glucose monitoring are pivotal in disease management. Conventional glucometer-based monitoring may overlook hypoglycemic trends. This study assesses glycemic control in Asian Indian GSD children using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and its role in facilitating dietary adjustments.
Methods: A pre-post study enrolled molecularly confirmed GSDI, GSDIII, GSDVI, and GSDIX patients for baseline dietary compliance and CGM-based glycemic status evaluation. Hypoglycemic patients were stratified into diet-compliant and diet-noncompliant groups. Noncompliant patients received dietary reinforcement; compliant individuals underwent dietary adjustments. Repeat CGM (rCGM) was performed 6 weeks to 6 months postadjustments. Clinical and metabolic parameters were re-evaluated at 6 months.
Results: Of the 20 patients assessed at baseline, 11 were diet compliant. Six among these exhibited hypoglycemia, prompting diet adjustments. Among nine noncompliant patients, eight experienced hypoglycemia and received diet reinforcement. rCGM in 10 patients (five GSDI, three GSDIII, and two GSDIXc) showed a significant reduction in hypoglycemia duration in all. An improvement in height and body mass index was observed in all GSDI and GSDIII patients. Triglyceride levels, raised at baseline in two GSDI and one GSDIII, showed a substantial decline in one GSDI patient. Hepatic transaminase levels decreased in both GSDIXc patients. Plasma lactate levels decreased in all GSDI patients.
Conclusion: CGM is an efficacious adjunct in the personalized management of hepatic GSD patients, in the Asian Indian population. The study also underscores the need for long-term follow-up to determine the role of glycemic management in growth, general well-being, and metabolic control in the GSD subtypes.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition (JPGN) provides a forum for original papers and reviews dealing with pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition, including normal and abnormal functions of the alimentary tract and its associated organs, including the salivary glands, pancreas, gallbladder, and liver. Particular emphasis is on development and its relation to infant and childhood nutrition.
